Is it just me, or is Gene Hackman in 95% of all Westerns ever made?

What Kafka said. I'm pretty sure The Conversation is on Netflix too. The Conversation

His role in Enemy of the State was sort of a reprisal of his role in The Conversation. You'll like it. Also includes John Cazale (Fredo from The Godfather). Harrison Ford, Terri Garr and Cindy Williams in smaller roles.

As well as Robert Duvall

FWIW it's Hackman's own favorite of his films.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Bonnie and Clyde yet. Bonnie and Clyde is easily my favorite Gene Hackman film and it was his breakout role. Great movie, great performance by Hackman, and Faye Dunaway has never looked better on film.
